Williamston citizens, while not arguing
w ith legal aspects of the cast' art' bitterly
disappointed wilt the outcome ol the plan to
have the death trap in West Main Street
removed nr remedied.
Tin y "fan t understand why a railroad
rein.pane. enjoying a fairly good it not a
flourishing business in the town, will d -
liberatelv stand on the sidelines and laugh
up h . sleeve so to speak wlrtle people are
maimed and killed and ignore repeated ap- i
peals for relief The people can neither I
understand why a great public agency such |
as the highway commission will deliberate- j
1\ ignore a well-founded plea tor considera
tion. The arrogant remarks by a represen- *
tatiw of the highway commission do not
set well at ail with the people who have j
crawled, hats in band, pleading to both the
railroad at d the highway lords for relief.
And it is an unfounded tolsehood, inten- 1
tionally or unintentionally advanced, when
it is claimed the town had not pleaded rii- \
reetly and mdireelk and, yes, politically,
for til ( ! The cop its, in inure than one in
stance has recognized the danger existing
at flu underpa s. And, yet, the big rad
road company and the all-mighty highway
commission of North Carolina have rared
back on theii haunches and done nothing
except belittle the pleas of the people for

The voters are going alter the two Presi
de1 tial candidates just as if either of them
holds the destiny of this nation and the
world in the palm of their hands
In North Carolina there's little the voters
ran do about it, for there are no senatorial
coin sts and no race for congressman in this
district On tin State level, it is possible to
select ;. governor from either of the two
parties.
Oti the national front, however, several
states have an opportunity to help decide
the fate of the nation The voters have the
chance to repudiate McCarthy, .tenner, Kent
and Company Then tht re is an opportunity
for others to turn back those reactionaries
who havt vi ’od against the tanner. ty,e
working man and just about everv ither
tiling that s best for the welfare of the na
tion and a large part of the world.
If Kisenhower is elected, there is the
possibility that McCarthy and other will
hang around his neck like a mill stone. The
•tame is true for Stevenson. So it's time to
pray that the Congress of these United
Stales will have men elected to it who will
serve the best interests of the nation and
not the private interests.
Remember that what you possess in t
world will bt lound at the day of your deu

Mr. Dwight Eisenhower has forfeited no
right or twist in providing the utmost sc
curity for himself, lie wiggled his way
around to claim for Ins own security about
tinee-quart. rs of a million dollars Irom the
sale of a book, leaving the gov. rnment hold
ing the short end ol a stick The action
was perfectly I. gal. but there was more
thought for1 Eisenhoyver than there was tor
country.
Ml Eisenhower is the same fellow who
said some time ago that if the common man
wants security he could find food, shelter
and raiment in jail or prison

Martin County peanut farmers are a bit
worrit'd over the marketing plans for the
: current crop. The new plan possibly isn't
1 as simple or as easy as the old, but one thing
is certain and that is the government is not
going to stand idly by and see the peanut
farmer sold down the river
\ The government plan likely will be at
tacked m some quarters, and possibly it isn't
just right or the best plan, but it is a safe
guard not only for the farmer but also ftr
the handlers and ultimate consumers
There is no real cause for alarm, and it i:
fairly certain that Martin County, given fav
viable weather from now on out. will mar
ket a good crop of goobers with the brigh
prospect of making up some, if not much o
the loss that is certain to center around tin
‘ tobacco crop.
